Solve the following equation for x. 9x - 2 = 4

Answer 1

To solve the equation \( 9x - 2 = 4 \), follow these steps:

1. Add 2 to both sides of the equation to isolate the term with \( x \):

\[ 9x - 2 + 2 = 4 + 2 \]

This simplifies to:

\[ 9x = 6 \]

2. Next, divide both sides by 9 to solve for \( x \):

\[ x = \frac{6}{9} \]

3. Simplify the fraction:

\[ x = \frac{2}{3} \]

Thus, the solution is:

\[ \boxed{\frac{2}{3}} \]
